Quote by Gabriel Byrne
It was either Voltaire or Charlie Sheen who said, 'We are born alone. We live alone. We die alone. And anything in between that can give us the illusion that we're not, we cling to.'
Summary
This quote suggests that despite our interactions and relationships with others throughout our lives, we ultimately face our existence alone. It implies that we are inherently alone from birth to death, and any sense of connection or belonging we experience serves as a temporary distraction from this truth. The quote suggests that we may seek comfort in these illusions of connection, clinging to them to fill the inherent void of human existence.
